The Shepherd’s Hut is in a private spot in Walcot’s beautiful Arboretum and has just recently been redecorated.
The Shepherd’s Hut is in a private spot in Walcot’s beautiful Arboretum.
The Hut is an original Roadman’s Wagon with a cosy kingsize bed. There is a wood-burning stove for warmth and a simple camping stove for cooking. There is a lovely outside seating area near a campfire for those lazy summer evenings.
You are very welcome to bring your own BBQ.
We supply you with bed linen, but we ask you to bring your own towels.
Walcot Hall’s hidden hideaways are glamping in the truest sense of the word! We are off-grid, so don’t expect to find electricity, but there are fairy lights and candles for when the night draws in. There are hot showers and quirky flushing loos just a short distance away, as well as a small kitchen area with a gas burner and running water. A refillable water container will be provided in your accommodation. If you are looking to book at the beginning or end of the season, please be aware that nights can get chilly. We do provide hot water bottles and logs, just in case, but it’s best to come prepared!
Please note our glamping accommodation is only suitable for the more agile and adventurous. Sturdy footwear and a torch are essential, especially if you’re arriving after dark, as there are no lights in the arboretum. Wellies are also useful if it has been wet.
If you would like to bring a cool box for your food we have a communal freezer in the passageway by the Estate office, where you are welcome to refreeze your blocks.
All of Walcot Hall’s self-catering holiday cottages and glamping accommodation are dog friendly.
Situated within the Walcot Hall estate in our beautiful Arboretum, there are two Showman’s caravans.
Ram Baa Shepherd Hut is one of ten ‘Hidden Treasures’ and sits right in the middle of the arboretum, surrounded by beautiful trees and nature.
Located in the yurt field alongside Crazy Horse and Buffalo Springfield Yurts this new yurt has its own private decking with wonderful views over the valley and village of Lydbury North.
Situated in the arboretum, with stunning views over Shropshire’s Longmynd this Showman’s Caravan is an authentic caravan which has been renovated and redesigned to suit people looking for a holiday with a difference.
